The 17-year-old actor shared about the film with MTV News, “It’s definitely a new interpretation. We’ve changed quite a bit of the story, but the heart of the story is there. The American, patriotic feel of the original, rising up against the invaders, is still definitely there. The Chinese are invading now, so we’re switching that up just to stay with the times a little bit.”

Josh laughed off, “We blew up all of downtown Detroit. Blowing stuff up and shooting guns all day was quite an amazing experience.”
